Prune Whip Pie image

Whips are desserts made of sugar and stiffly beaten egg whites or cream and usually flavored with fruit. Prune whip can be viewed as not only a treat to enjoy at the end of a meal, but also a delicious way to add fiber to the daily consumption of food. Top this treat with a little lightly sweetened whipped cream or good vanilla ice cream. From the Western chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947.

This pie was okay. The filling was a bit bland and the crust was a bit dry. I think it could have used more spices in the filling and more butter in the crust.

This pie was a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be making this pie again.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar in the filling. Otherwise, it was a good pie.
